    <p>Today I’m launching <a href="http://www.newsblur.com/ios">version 3.0 of the iPhone and iPad app for NewsBlur</a>. This major update brings loads of big features that combine to make the world’s best iOS news reader with the fastest sync in town.</p>

<p><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/static.newsblur.com/blog/ios_offline.png" alt="" /></p>

<ul>
  <li>Offline support - stories and images are downloaded quickly and in parallel.</li>
  <li>Syncing - read stories offline or with little connectivity.</li>
  <li>Preferences - override global order/read filter settings, configure offline, and other options.</li>
  <li>Send to - rewritten to include single-tap Instapaper/Readability/Pocket integration.</li>
  <li>Saved and shared stories now show the proper icon.</li>
  <li>Activities/interactions have been rewritten to be easier on the eyes.</li>
  <li>A major performance improvement when returning to the app and when initially syncing.</li>
</ul>

<p>The biggest feature since this Spring’s redesign is finally here. As always, <a href="http://www.newsblur.com/ios">the iOS app is a free download</a>.</p>
